Sheerline Designs

At Sheerline Designs, we offer a comprehensive suite of shipwright services, blending traditional craftsmanship with modern techniques to ensure your vessel remains in prime condition. Our team is adept at handling projects of all scales, from minor repairs to extensive restorations.

Our Experience 

Our foundation is built on a first-class diploma in traditional boat building and Glass Reinforced Plastic (GRP) from the International Boatbuilding Training College (IBTC) in Lowestoft. This is further enhanced by international experience at one of Vancouver’s leading shipyards, where we worked on a diverse range of vessels, from classic yachts to steel and aluminium commercial ships of varying sizes. Currently we work all across the UK as well as in the main Northumberland based workshop.

Our Commitment to Quality

Our commitment to quality is executed to the highest standards, utilising the latest methods and products in the industry to deliver exceptional results. We understand the importance of your vessel’s performance and appearance, and we strive to exceed your expectations in every project we undertake.
